(a) There's no "Czech" way. The kitchen is k.u.k. = Austrian.
We took the best, refined it, and they took it back.
The dish originated in Bohemia, btw.
(b) No, Golatschen or Kolatschen (from Czech kolac = cake)
use a completely different dough and are always baked.

I'll post the recipes, if someone is interested.

Cheers,
